We aimed to determine the seasonal activity of adult mosquitoes (Diptera: Culicidae) in a focus of diro- filariasis and West Nile infection in Guilan Province, northern Iran. Methods: Collections were carried out using light traps in seven counties at least two times from random sites and every two weeks from a fixed site (Pareh Village, Rudbar County) during Aug–Dec 2015 and Apr–Oct 2016. Results: Overall, 16327 adult mosquitoes comprising 18 species representing seven genera were identified. The most prevalent species were Cx. theileri (23.59%), Cx. tritaeniorhynchus (20.75%), Cx. pipiens (19.37%), Ae. vexans (18.18%), An. pseudopictus (10.92%) and An.

  • Family-Based Disaster Preparedness: a Case Study of the City of Rudsar Jafar Akbari M
    Science Arena Publications International journal of Business Management Available online at www.sciarena.com 2016, Vol, 1 (1): 67-76 Family-Based Disaster Preparedness: A Case Study of the City of Rudsar Jafar Akbari M. A in Management, [email protected] Abstract: The risks of accidents and disasters such as earthquakes, floods and the vulnerability of people to structural and non-structural damages are very high in many regions of Iran, including the city of Rudsar. This article has studied the important issue of operational preparedness of the families in Rudsar in the face of possible accidents, disasters and crises. The aim of the study is to investigate the factors influencing the participation of citizens in possible accidents in Rudsar and to suggest ways for increasing their participation. The study is an applied one and has used the existing literature and description as its method of data collection. The research sample included the household families in the rural and urban areas of Rudsar during the winter of 2015. Sampling was done by clustering method and the questionnaires were randomly distributed among the household women who were accessed through the health centers in the region. The data was analyzed in SPSS 18. The results showed that there is a significant relationship between training and household preparedness which indicates the direct relationship between training and preparedness among the families of Rudsar in the face of accidents and disasters. Therefore, to increase inclusive participation of everyone for controlling the accidents and disasters it is necessary to conduct training for all age groups especially for the women of the families – who are possible to reach at through the health centers – so that the latter group could transfer the training to all the other family members.

Correspondence: Tel. (98) 0341 3222047, Fax (98) 0341 3222047, E-mail [email protected] Abstract. The gullet worm, Gongylonema pulchrum Molin, 1857, is a thread-like nematode that occurs in a large variety of animals worldwide. The present study was conducted to investigate the prevalence and histophatology of G. pulchrum in cattle slaughtered in Rudsar slaughterhouse, Gilan Province, northern Iran. During four seasons of 2011, a total of 680 esophagi of native and hybrid breed cattle at Rudsar abattoir were examined parasitologically and pathologically for gongylonemiasis. Cattle were considered in three age groups including less than 2, 2-5 and over 5 years old. Results of our study showed that the prevalence of G. pulchrum in cattle was 16.2%. Prevalence was significantly highest in native cattle and in summer (P<0.05). The highest prevalence was in cattle over 5 years old and males were more infected than females. The age and sex of the cattle had not significant effects on the prevalence of the parasite (P>0.05).

Esula with about 480 species is one of the most diverse and complex lineages of the giant genus Euphorbia . Species of this subgenus are usually herbaceous and are mainly distributed in temperate areas of the Northern Hemisphere. Th is paper updates the taxonomy and distribution of Euphorbia (subgen.

We provide a key, species descriptions, illustrations (for most species), distribution maps, brief characterization of ecology as well as relevant notes for the 12 species of this section occurring in Iran. As a result of this revision, E. altissima var. altissima is reported as new for the country, and a new species from northern Iran, Euphorbia mazandaranica , is described and illustrated.

(2018). Distribution and Diversity of Freshwater Crabs (Decapoda: Brachyura: Potamidae, Gec- arcinucidae) in Iranian Inland Waters. Aquatic Sciences and Engineering, 33(4): 110-116. ABSTRACT This article reviews the current knowledge of primary freshwater crabs (Decapoda, Brachyura) in Iranian inland waters, with the purpose of classifying the exact number of species, the threat sta- tus, and their distribution and diversity. Previous studies have reported that Iranian inland waters have eight freshwater crab species and there was no accurate information on the distribution of freshwater crab species in Iran. This review article describes that an additional six freshwater crab species, Potamon gedrosianum, P. magnum, P. mesopotamicum, P. ilam, Sodhiana blanfordi, and S. iranica, are also present in Iran. Therefore, there are 14 freshwater crab species currently known in Iran, which belong to two families (Gecarcinucidae and Potamidae). The genus Potamon is rep- resented by 11 species, and the genus Sodhiana is represented by 3 species (found in south and south east of Iran). In addition, this review presents a distribution map and the possible threats for each species.

    Journal of Tourism & Hospitality Research Islamic Azad University, Garmsar Branch Vo l. 5, No.1, Autumn & Winter 2016, Pp. 5-16 Evaluation of Tourism Indicators in Rural Development in Amlash city Simin Armaghan* Department of Geography, Yadegar -e- Imam Khomeini (RAH) Branch, Islamic Azad University, Tehran, Iran Abstract Amlash city due to the attraction of beautiful landscapes, with tourism and is rich in ancient monuments, the position is in Gilan geography has. But the deadlock in order to catch the attention of the local authorities and the lack of Amlash in the fields of planning and action in the direction of introducing the gravity lift forklift infrastructure development has caused potential tourists from the city for villages do not have much information and therefore rural tourism Amlash trimmed to effect. The present research aimed to identify the more tourist attractions and Amlash County, a rural and proceeded in the direction of introducing the gravity lift to the rural tourism boom and rural development has been the city editor. The research method of descriptive and analytic studies of the type, for data analysis, descriptive statistics and inferential statistics forklift has been used, the assumptions in the power of attraction of the rural tourism development in the direction of Amlash County is expressed. Review of the research of hypothesis testing, the test for p and using the results of the questionnaire, forklift, and assumptions with the 95 percent confidence level was test. The results of the assessment against the stricter-ability to lift rural natural and cultural attractions, Amlash and forklift capability, ability to attract domestic and foreign tourists have been a positive evaluation of the tourism boom and fitted can afford Amlash County rural development provides them.

This research compares two different studies. The first groups samples have been gathered from the 5 research stations near the coastal line while the second one inspecting the samples from the depth of 5 meters. Studying these samples in the matters of sedimentary size and gradation, show that sedimentations with the same size of sand and silt take the highest place. The important point is that the average of coastal grain size is the same with the sand ones, on the other hand, for the collected samples from the depth of 5 meters it would be the same size of silts. There is a small amount of gravel and in fact there are no records of clays.
